Twitter is currently testing a way new upvote and downvote reactions for tweets to go with the standard alternatives to retweet and reply. Twitter reportedly affirmed it was trying the feature for a little group of users on iOS, and it’s now been spotted by numerous tweets from users that are included for the experimental group.
Some of you on iOS may see different options to up or down vote on replies. We're testing this to understand the types of replies you find relevant in a convo, so we can work on ways to show more of them.

Twitter composes that iOS users may see upvotes and downvotes in a few unique styles (up and down arrows, a heart icon and a down bolt, and thumbs up and thumbs down icons) and that it’s trying the feature to comprehend the kinds of answers users find important in a conversation, so Twitter can deal with approaches to show a greater amount of them.” Currently, votes are not public.
While Twitter hasn’t said on the off chance that it intends to add up and down voting as a lasting feature (or what voting means for what you find in your feed), there are clear equals to be attracted to Reddit, which features upvoting and downvoting as a method of surfacing a subreddit’s number one answers reactions and posts.
